The crossover between line illustrations and patterns is a trend that’s been developing for a few years. It’s playful, and frequently naive in style. What’s especially interesting is how this style of illustration is successfully being applied across a broad range of design media, from murals and wallpaper to packaging, from t-shirt designs to the web.
This collection of “busy” or pattern-style illustrations takes in everything from major product campaigns to doodles. The beauty of this style is that it can be built up through many layers of digital graphics, or left as a simple line drawing, while retaining its charm and irreverence. Which pieces do you think are the most effective?

I think the Jon Burgerman piece is fantastic, I also think the Paulo Arraiano works great as its show, with a digital image as the iphones wallpaper and the cover, great concept! :)

Two thumbs up for all of this art works. Its really amazing to know that “how did they do that”. Their creative mind was really playful and comes up with amazing Pattern-Style Drawing like these. I wish I can make one of these but i don’t have an art talent like those guys who did this art works.
